pisher<\/a><\/i>–the girl will pee anywhere except a toilet. Case in point: I had to ask my father in Florida, “Let me ask you this: hypothetically speaking only of course, but if someone peed in your shower, would you want to know?” And then last week at the Y, after her swim class, I realized it was a major faux pas to shout in the middle of the girls’ locker room, “Pie! Are you peeing on the floor?!?” Luckily Doodles saved me by, erroneously, saying, “No, Mom, I think it’s just water dripping from her swimsuit in a funny way”).<\/p>\nYes, I’m getting to a point. So I take her to the bathroom, and I set a timer, with the strict understanding that she’s to go back to nap when the timer rings whether or not anything has happened.

Now, Pie thinks very hard for a moment. Then she announces, “Pie has a v*agina…and<\/i> a Dora backpack!!!”<\/p>\n
Ah, only two and a half years old, and her life is complete. And no, the nap never came. A v*agina, a backpack, and<\/i> a nap? Now that would have been just plain greedy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
The other day, Pie was pulling every trick out of the book to avoid nap time. She was clearly exhausted but didn’t want to give in. She had climbed down from lunch in order to play with Doodles, so I put her in her crib. “No!” she screamed. “Hungry! I finish lunch!” “You finished lunch,” […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[5],"class_list":["post-373","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-pie"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/373","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=373"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/373\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=373"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=373"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jennyandadam.com\/Jenny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=373"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
